Slow Cooker Whole Chicken With Smoky Paprika

A whole chicken sits on a bed of baby potatoes and steams itself into juicy, pull-apart meat. No trussing, no basting, no oven.

Ingredients

  • 1.6 kilogram whole chicken
  • 700 gram baby potatoes
  • 1 piece lemon
  • 2 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 2 teaspoon salt

Instructions

  1. 1Tip the baby potatoes into the slow cooker to make a bed, then sit the whole chicken on top.
  2. 2Prick the lemon a few times with a fork and push it into the chicken cavity.
  3. 3Drizzle the oil over the chicken and sprinkle the paprika, garlic powder, onion powder and salt all over the skin.
  4. 4Put the lid on and cook on low for 6 and a half hours, then pull the meat apart with two forks.
  5. 5Strip any leftover meat off the bones the same night. It keeps 3 days in the fridge or 3 months frozen in flat bags; thaw in the fridge and reheat in the microwave for 2 minutes.
